Whitey Ford’s stumbling stretch looms over Yankee loss
In Boston, Bill Monbouquette shut out the Yankees 4-0 as New York’s starting trio of Coates, Terry, and Turley faltered. Dicey support allowed Boston to pull away late, while Cleveland remained three games behind in the American League race after the Indians fell to the White Sox 4-1. Washington defeated Baltimore 9-5, widening the gap with Detroit, who lost in 13 innings at Kansas City. Monbouquette earned his eighth win, despite a tough night for Ditmar who took the loss.
